Greetings to all readers.
Most computer games (even those that came out 10 years ago) support multiplayer play: either over the Internet or over a local network. This, of course, is good, if not for one “but” - in many cases it will not be possible to connect to each other without using third-party programs.
There are many reasons for this:
For example, the game does not support playing over the Internet, but there is support for local mode. In this case, you must first organize such a network between two (or more) computers on the Internet, and then start the game;
Lack of a “white” IP address. It's more about organizing Internet access by your provider. Often in this case it is impossible to do without using software at all;
The inconvenience of constantly changing the IP address. Many users have a dynamic IP address that is constantly changing. So, in many games you need to specify the IP address of the server, and if the IP changes, you have to constantly enter new numbers. To avoid this, special tools will come in handy. programs…
In fact, we’ll talk about such programs in this article.
GameRanger
Supports all popular versions of Windows: XP, Vista, 7, 8 (32/64 bits)
GameRanger is one of the most popular programs for playing games on the Internet. Supports all the most popular games, among them there are all the hits that I simply could not help but mention in this review:
Age of Empires (The Rise of Rome, II, The Conquerors, Age of Kings, III), Age of Mythology, Call of Duty 4, Command & Conquer Generals, Diablo II, FIFA, Heroes 3, Starcraft, Stronghold, Warcraft III.
In addition, there is simply a huge community of players from all over the World: more than 20,000 - 30,0000 users online (even in the morning/night hours); about 1000 created games (rooms).
During installation of the program, you will need to register by indicating your work email (this is mandatory, you will need to confirm your registration, and if you forget your password, you will not be able to recover your account).
After the first launch, GameRanger will automatically find all installed games on your PC and you will be able to see games created by other users.
By the way, it is very convenient to look at the server ping (marked with green bars:): the more green bars, the better the quality of the game will be (less lags and errors).
In the free version of the program, you can add 50 friends to your bookmarks - then you will always know who is online and when.
Works in: Windows XP, 7, 8 (32+64 bits)
A rapidly gaining popularity program for organizing online games. The principle of operation is somewhat different from GameRanger: if you go into a created room there, and then the server starts the game; then here each game already has its own rooms for 256 players - each player can launch their own copy of the game, and the rest can connect to it as if they were on the same local network. Comfortable!
By the way, the program contains all the most popular (and not popular) games, for example, here’s a screenshot of the strategies:
Thanks to such room lists, you can easily find friends for many games. By the way, the program remembers “your rooms” that you entered. In addition, each room has a good chat that allows you to negotiate with all the players on the network.
Result: a good alternative to GameRanger (and perhaps GameRanger will soon be an alternative to Tungle, because Tungle is already used by more than 7 million players around the world!).
Of. website: http://www.langamepp.com/langame/
Full support for Windows XP, 7
This program was once unique in its kind: nothing simpler and faster to set up could simply be found. LanGame allows people from different networks to play games where such an option is not provided. And for this you don’t need an Internet connection!
Well, for example, you and your friends are connected to the Internet through the same provider, but in online game mode, you cannot see each other. What to do?
Install LanGame on all computers, then add each other’s IP addresses to the program (don’t forget to turn off the Windows firewall) - then all you have to do is start the game and try to turn on the online game mode again. Oddly enough - the game will start multiplayer mode - i.e. you will see each other!
Although, with the development of high-speed Internet, this program is losing its relevance (because even with players from other cities you can play with a very low ping, despite the lack of a local connection) - and yet, in narrow circles it can still be popular for a long time.
Hamachi
Works in Windows XP, 7, 8 (32+64 bits)
Hamachi was once a very popular program for organizing a local network over the Internet, used in many games for multiplayer mode. Moreover, there were very few worthy competitors.
Today, Hamachi is more needed as an “insurance” program: not all games are supported by GameRanger or Tungle. Sometimes, some games are so “capricious” due to the lack of a “white” IP address or the presence of NAT devices - that there are simply no alternatives to playing through Hamachi!
Overall, a simple and reliable program that will be relevant for a long time. Recommended for all fans of rare games and those connected to the Internet through “problematic” providers.
Alternative programs for playing online
Yes, of course, my list of 4 programs above did not include many popular programs. However, I was based, firstly, on those programs with which I had experience working, and, secondly, in many of them the online players are too small to consider them seriously.
For example, GameArcade- a popular program, however, in my opinion, its popularity has been falling for a long time. There is simply no one to play with in many games; the rooms stand empty. Although, for hits and popular games the picture is somewhat different.
Garena- also a fairly popular program for playing on the Internet. True, the number of supported games is not so large (at least in my repeated tests - many games could not be launched. It is possible that now the situation has changed for the better). As for hit games, the program has gathered a fairly large community (Warcraft 3, Call of Duty, Counter Strike, etc.).
That's all, I will be grateful for interesting additions...
Games have their own indescribable magic. They give you the opportunity to be transported to another era, to completely different worlds and to imagine yourself as much as possible in the role of a different person, or even a completely different creature. These are absolutely incredible emotions, don’t you agree?
However, you can get even more pleasure from the game by playing with friends. You can save worlds together, escape from zombies, participate in races... There are an incredible number of options, and today we will tell you about games that you can play together with a friend or online with players from all over the world.
Playerunknown's Battlegrounds
Platforms:
Multiplayer:
The multiplayer shooter with a jaw-dropping name has been in the top of the most popular projects for a long time, despite the fact that it is in Early Access and still has rough edges and bugs. The essence of the game is quite simple and lies in the fact that you must remain the last survivor on the map, a kind of “King of the Hill”.
At the very beginning of the fight you have absolutely nothing, but gradually you need to find weapons, vehicles and other useful things. The area of the map decreases over time and you need to hurry, but also be careful, because other players want to win no less than you. Be cunning and insidious, shoot when the enemy does not expect it, hide so that no one finds you. The game has very positive reviews and is definitely worth checking out.
Destiny 2
Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One
Multiplayer: co-op for 6 players, online multiplayer for 8
The multiplayer component has brought many changes and, in general, we can say that the game has become even more difficult. Although, on the other hand, now you can count not only on yourself, but also on your friends. Some creatures have received a higher health indicator, but players, in turn, become hungry faster. You can play together online, set up a local network, or survive using one computer.
The mechanics of death also became interesting. Now, after one of the players passes into another world, he becomes a ghost and can continue to travel with the group in the form of incorporeal matter until he is resurrected. Considering also the fact that they appear in the game, there is simply no time to be bored there.
League of Legends
Platforms: Windows PC
Multiplayer: online co-op for up to 5 people, online multiplayer for 10 players
The multiplayer part can also boast of difficulties and interesting things, but solving it all with a friend is much more interesting, wouldn’t you agree? Joint shootouts and destruction of enemies will no longer surprise anyone, but puzzles are a completely different cuisine. You can play through the game using Split Screen, playing on one computer, use online co-op or a local network.
To put it simply, grab a friend and buy Portal 2 without thinking, especially since it can now be purchased on Steam for absolutely ridiculous money! If you are completely unfamiliar with the game, although it’s hard to even imagine, then you can read ours.
Trine 2
Platforms: Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, PlayStation 4
Multiplayer: 3-player co-op, HotSeat
As you may know, there are only three parts of Trine at the moment, but the second one is perhaps the best of them all.
The game is designed for four, and you will have to fight against rat people. Don't think it will be easy, because these creatures are smarter than many people! You will have to think quite a lot in the game, because your enemies are cunning and insidious. It will be very difficult for you, because the rat people know how to take you by surprise, how to instill in you a feeling of hopelessness. They will pull you away one by one, crush you in a crowd, not even allowing you to move to a safe distance. Even experienced players choke on their own blood and have no way to fight back. A large addition has brought even greater variety and hordes of rats to the game. Co-op is possible both online and through a local network.
Are you scared yet? Then grab axes, rapiers, pistols, crossbows and everything else! The battles await you are simply crazy!
Orcs Must Die! 2
Platforms: PC
Multiplayer: 2 player co-op
Killings are the very reason for purchasing this game. Here you have to not only repel waves of orcs, but also set traps, invent new ways and tactics of destroying these insidious creatures. There's definitely room for fantasy here! In general, the game is a mixture of Tower Defense and Action genres. There will be plenty of hot moments!
A partner is extremely important here, because you can divide responsibilities and spheres of influence between you. You will have a little time before each new wave of orcs, but you need to use it extremely wisely. Set traps, determine your positions, and prepare properly to welcome guests. Don't let it get captured!
PayDay 2
Platforms: Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch
Multiplayer: online co-op for 4 people
You won’t have to rob caravans, but banks, ports and houses of the rich are no problem. This is precisely the highlight of this project.
PayDay 2 is designed for four people and you won’t be able to go it alone. The cooperative is built to the highest possible quality and requires close teamwork. You need to act quickly, because if you delay, then heavy juggernauts will come to eliminate you, which are extremely difficult to kill. If you don’t protect your comrade, you’ll lose him or even fail the mission. If you play one at a time, everyone will be removed and there will be no chance of winning. In general, the game is distinguished by its complexity and even aggressiveness. It's less about fun and more about planning, tactics and teamwork. In general, everything is as close as possible to real robberies.
You will have to get used to the role of seasoned robbers. Costumes, uniforms, top weapons, the atmosphere of crime and masks - each of these details creates a wonderful game that is worth trying.
Team Fortress 2
Platforms: PC
Multiplayer: co-op for 6 players, online multiplayer for up to 32 players
Valve's multiplayer shooter, called , was released more than ten years ago, but is still quite popular among gamers around the world.
It’s worth playing this Valve creation, if only because it’s very well suited for simply relaxing after work or school. Battles are fun and relaxed. The graphics in the game are angular and colorful, even the characters themselves are made with some ease, like the weapons.
The game is comical and ironic, so even if you lose you will get positive emotions, simply because everything that happens on the monitor makes you smile and laugh. There's not a ton of variety in weapons, maps or characters, but it's a great way to relax and while away an evening with friends.
Starcraft 2
Platforms: PC

A definite advantage of this game is that it is not very demanding on hardware, which means even those with weak systems can play without any significant losses. The graphics here are quite simple, but still beautiful. The narration does not happen all at once, but occurs as new chapters are released, although the plot is far from the main thing here.
Multiplayer component of the game. That's what's worth paying attention to. Starcraft 2 is practically a classic of the RTS genre. Here you will have to focus on tactics, construction and resource extraction. Blizzard has done everything possible to make the game interesting to both newcomers and veterans of this world.

Killing Floor 2 is a first-person shooter where the goal is to survive 4 to 10 waves of zombies. You can play from 1 to 6 players simultaneously. Between waves there is a store where you can buy weapons for the number of kills in the round. Interestingly, the developer divided all players into classes: shooter, marksman, and so on. Everyone has their own role and task performed in the process of survival. The tank holds back the damage, the marksman eliminates the strongest zombies, and the grenadier kills the weak ones in droves.
This game cannot please us with its plot. The scientist has learned to clone and control mutants who want to destroy you.
However, the team-based gameplay is truly impressive. Coherence and only coherence will help you survive real hell. Unite or count the last seconds of life!
